Kayaking

In Rishikesh we have 4 different trips on which are differentiated based on the starting point of the tour. All these trips are carried out on the river Ganges and conclude below Laxmanjhula Bridge in Tapovan. In addition we have a special trip on river Bhagirathi.We have high quality rafting equipment’s which are some of the best in the world with all kinds of safety and rescue tools like wet suits, dry tops, Personal Floatation Devices,Safety Helmets, booties, throw ropes, first aid kit and medicines. We also carry a dry bag in case customers want to carry their mobile phones or cameras with them. Apart from a fun-filled journey on the raft which passes through the mountains of Garhwal, the trip also includes body surfing in the river, cliff jumping and a small snacks break. Special focus is laid on the safety of rafters. Before every trip the customers are briefed about the security measures and rescue techniques. All the trips are accompanied by safety kayakers who along with the raft guides are highly experienced and internationally certified.
